I just finished it recently after two years of reading. It’s a book composed of essays by Roland Barthes, a literary theorist. I am kind of an analytical person, and always like to make connections between symbols and reality and ramble. If you’re a person like me, you’ll prolly like this book. The essays are written based on his precise semiotic principles and logic, but they also have very poetic qualities to them, which is cool. Now it’s displayed by the kitchen table and used as a trivet when I eat ramen noodles. -Jae
